Instructions:

True to Barack Obama’s motto “Yes we can”, the aim of this skill drinking game is to find the right balance. The goal is to drink just the right amount from a can of beer to make it possible to balance it on the edge so it looks like the leaning tower of Pisa. Sounds difficult, but it’s not. The difficulty lies in finding the right mixture of speed and caution. If you drink too much of your beer, it is almost impossible to complete the task and you have to start again. The players of each team line up in turn and cheer on their teammates. Once the first player has finished the task successfully, the second can start. This goes on like that until the last player of one team finishes and starts celebrating with his fellow winners.

Make sure to agree on a punishment for the losers upfront.

Rules:

• Two (or more) teams have to be formed
• Line up at opposing sides of a table
• The first player of each team starts and opens a can of beer
• The goal is to balance it on the edge
• One player 1 is done, the next team member starts doing the same
• The team that finishes first wins

Make sure to agree on a punishment for the losing team before you start.

Additional Rules:

• In case a player drinks too much, so the can can’t be balanced on the edge anymore, it is allowed to open a new can and start over again.
• In case a player drops the can and spills some of the beer, he has to open a new one and start over again.
